Journal Title: Проблеми економіки - Year 2016, Vol 2016, Issue 3

Abstract

The aim of the article is to analyze equity capital in the system of financial support of industrial enterprises’ innovative activity and determine directions of increasing the efficiency of its use. The work considers the essence of financial support of innovative activity. There studied enterprises introducing innovations in the EU and Ukraine, the share of domestic expenditure on R & D in the GDP. It has been determined that the European countries have significant gross domestic expenditure on R & D, which in most countries has positive dynamics of growth. The funding sources of domestic enterprises’ innovative activity have been analyzed. It has been found that the innovative activity of domestic enterprises is funded primarily by means of equity capital, which is caused by the high cost of bank credits, the lack of access to government funding, the low percentage of investors’ funds. The components of equity capital that can provide for financial support of innovative activities have been identified. For the successful implementation of innovative activity by means of equity capital enterprises should use not only such traditional sources as amortization charges and retained profit but also such component of equity capital as the staff. In addition enterprises should increase their equity capital through cooperation, mergers with other enterprises, formation of IFGs.
